iPods
So, the new iPods are in. At first glance, I was kind of disappointed; the second time I looked, I wasn’t quite as disappointed. Apple has been very frugal in their latest batch of new hardware. My greatest displeasure comes from the new iPod Touch. . . IT HAS NO CAMERA (not to mention the exclusion of a compass and FM radio). Although they did add a mic, voice control, a faster processor, better graphics, and better wi-fi, a camera would have been appropriate as well.
Apple did do a good job with the new iPod Nano – its got a video camera and radio.
The iPod classic merely got a gigabyte update and price reduction.
iTunes 9
While the iPods did not do so well, iTunes got some major updates. Genius, for one, has become brilliant.
iTunes LP is cool for those willing to spend a little extra to get access to interviews, flashy lyrics, a band-based home screen design, and other cool stuff.
The iTunes store has become much more user-friendly (especially with song previews)
Genius Mix – creates whole albums of genius based playlists.
Improved syncing – faster and more user friendly.
A wish list - good business for Apple 
enjoy,
rooster
